Overview

Gare Grooves is back this summer to bring the Gare district to life with a series of free open-air concerts!

This year, shows will take place every Thursday from 11 June to 30 July 2026. The concept is evolving to feature a programme that blends roaming acts with on-stage concerts, creating an even more immersive musical experience throughout the neighbourhood.

On 25 June and 2 July, a stage will be set up on Place de la Gare, featuring ensembles of the conservatoire and artists from Proufraim 1831, as in previous years.

Every evening, audiences and passersby were treated to unique musical experiences with a fun and friendly atmosphere!
